Default Classic ASP question. Urgent !!!

Hi, guys. We have a very old application that is written in classic ASP.
It's sitting on a very old server. I am supposed to do a migration of this
app to a new server. I copied all the files to a new server with Windows
2000 Server on it (actually it's a virtual server) and installed SQL Server
2000. The application works good, except for one little annoying thing. They
use an Office Automation in this application. The word document is created
based on some template and the values from SQL Server are inserted into this
document. So, on the old server when you click on the report, it
automatically generates a MS Word 2000 document and Opens it, so the user
can view it and saves it to a temp directory. On this new server we have MS
Word 2003 installed. So, when I click on the report, the Word document is
created in a Temp directory, BUT... the document itself does not open
automatically for a user to view. Can anyone help me with this issue, please
? I don't know much about classic ASP or Office automation. I am a SQL
Server DBA, with some knowledge of .NET programming. But, I guess, at work
you have to do what you have to do. Please, help !!!

 Thanks,

Victor.
